  1. Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)

    1975 · Casablanca

    Ranked No. 6 in Funk

    Clinton turns funk into cosmology — a mythology with its own spacecraft, villains and liturgy. Underneath the theatre is Bootsy Collins playing the most disciplined bass line on this list.

  2. Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)

    1975 · Casablanca

    Picked by The Waxonia Desk — Where the Accent Moved

    Enormous theatre over a bass part of complete discipline. The theatre is what everybody remembers and the discipline is the reason it still works fifty years later.
